I will; I should; I ought.
Just let me say how much I love You
Let me speak of Your mercy and grace
Just let me live in a shadow of Your beauty
Let me see You face to face
And the earth will shake as Your Word goes forth
And the heavens will tremble and fall
But let me say how much I love You
Oh my Savior, my Lord and Friend
Just let me hear Your finest whispers
As You gently call my name
And let me see Your power and Your glory
Let me feel Your spirit's flame
Let me find You in the desert
Till this sand is holy ground
And I am found completely surrendered
To You my Lord and Friend
So let me say how much I love You
With all my heart I long for You
For I am caught in this passion of knowing
This endless love I've found in You
And the depth of grace, the forgiveness found
To be called a child of God
Just makes me say how much I love You
Oh my Savior, my Lord and Friend
Just makes me say how much I love You
Oh my Savior, my Lord and Friend
I pretty enjoyed myself at Sakae yesterday, simply eating my hearts out after a tiring week. Just yesterday morning, I realized how many times the word "stress" was mentioned on my lips. It has become a word we use it so frequent that we have lost the value of it totally. My definition of stress is having to stay up late to complete my project so as to get A1, to put myself, my mind to work after school ended at 8pm, to deal with the depression I have aftering taking school examinations because my results were often nowhere near my other friends, and to silently cry in F&N class when I have totally forgotten my theory. ...why do I say this? /=
Perhaps sometimes I've allowed things to pour in so much that I am buried at the bottom of the pit, never allowing myself to leap out of the well to see the surrounding. Sometimes I just want to have that simple child-like faith and entrust everything I have to my Lord, but I just chose to take things by myself. ):
On my way yesterday, I made a decision of doing well in my studies. Now that I'm put to take charge of the graduating group, I myself, need to be an example. (: Three months of sacrifices are worthwhile; it does not only reflect at my results, but it's a pruning time for characters as well. I want; I will; I should; I ought to do well. Sometimes it just takes that short moment of conviction to sink in, and to allow its momentum to take me flight. Afterall, God will see me through.
I had my longest and heartiest talk with Brother yesterday, and I cannot express how much I love and care for this Brother I've found in Him. He told me something that left me felt very loved, and blessed. In conversations with him, I am often brought to another way of perceiving things and to discover how much God loves me through His people. I've so much to share, but I know not where and how to start. I just know that I'm very very blessed. :D
